It is increasingly common for a system to operate not alone but as part of a more complex system landscape. Indeed, business processes currently run on systems of dissimilar types. In order to accommodate changes to business processes, the software used to configure these systems may change frequently. These software changes may, for example, fix existing software bugs, provide software updates, or provide new functionality. When these software changes are ready to be released, a transport manager transports or deploys these changes to various systems using a transport request. Transporting these changes, however, may adversely impact the system if, for example, the content of the transport request is incorrect. Doing so may result in system downtime, data loss, or damage to an application or process running on the system.
